What's your current thinking about a 35 or 50mm prime?? I did a little looking at the reviews for the 1.2mm L and saw a lot of disappointment in the sharpness. Another thing interesting is to go to Flickr and look at the "Group" for the lens that you're interested in, like the 1.2, 1.4 or 1.8 and pixel peep at the images. Also, look at the EXIF data. I had a hard time finding an image shot at 1.2. Most were at 2.8 and many of the ones wider than f2.0 were soft. Also, as was mentioned yesterday, a 35mm may be a better "normal" prime choice for a crop-body.

yeah i did the same last night. gonna get the 1.4 50mm instead and save some money.
I GUESS now I'd have enough to get the 70-200 2.8 IS but since everyone thinks its so damn heavy maybe I dont need the 2.8 on that one and I'll just settle for the f4 IS.
I'm not gonna bother with a 35mm prime since I have the 16-35mm 2.8 L
I don't really think I need anything more than 3 nice lenses, 16-35mm 50mm and 70-200mm.
